Dense 2U Storage Server

The Dell PowerEdge R730xd is a 2U rack server built for workloads that demand high drive density and large memory capacity. Dual Xeon E5-2680 v3 processors provide 24 cores at 2.5 GHz with 3.3 GHz turbo. The system ships with 512 GB of DDR4 ECC memory across 16 slots and a PERC H730 controller managing 24 installed 800 GB SATA SSDs.

Suited For Virtualisation And Data Nodes

This configuration suits organisations running virtual desktop infrastructure, databases or HPC data nodes that benefit from 24 hot-swap bays and quad-port 1/10 GbE networking. Buyers who need fewer drive bays or a smaller memory footprint should evaluate other platforms. The fixed two-processor maximum and LGA 2011-3 socket also limit future CPU upgrades.

24-Bay 2.5-Inch Chassis Decides Fit

The defining specification is the 24-bay 2.5-inch chassis paired with the H730 RAID controller. It determines how many SATA SSDs or HDDs can be installed internally and which RAID levels are supported. Verify that your rack space, power budget and storage protocol requirements match this 2U form factor before purchase.

Questions about this item

How long does the PERC H730 controller battery last before it needs replacement?

The PERC H730 includes a 1GB battery-backed cache; typical battery life spans several years, after which the module can be swapped without removing the controller.

Which component reaches its thermal or power ceiling first when both Xeon E5-2680 v3 CPUs run at 3.3GHz turbo continuously?

The dual 750W platinum power supplies and system cooling are rated for full 2.5GHz base load; sustained 3.3GHz turbo on all 24 cores may hit the 750W supply limit before thermal throttling occurs.

What is the typical power draw and fan noise level when all 24 drive bays and both 10GbE ports are active 24/7?

With 24 SATA SSDs, dual CPUs and 10GbE active, the server draws well under the 750W redundant supply capacity; fan speed ramps to maintain safe inlet temperatures, producing audible but data-centre-grade noise.
